So I know that they're trying to say it's not just "applets 2007", but how is it all that different? There's a 4MB download, it's running a VM (a mini-CLR), and it's probably going to have security limitations.
- omouse 20y agoIt's only a 4mb download. Java is 100mb+ last time I checked and no one uses it much for applets. Security limitations? I would expect them to be the same as the Java applet security limitations. Or no limitations at all since this is Microsoft we're talking about :P
- Tichy 19y agoIt seems to be a 13MB download: http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp 100MB is probably the SDK, which you don't need for running applets. The problem with plugins is not so much the size, though, it is the administrator rights. A lot of people surf the net from their offices in big corporations, where they might not have the rights to install anything on their computers.
